Homestead, Fl (March 7, 2011)- Running the fastest time of any Porsche in the field, TRG’s Steve Bertheau and Spencer Pumpelly overcame adversity early on to finish 11th during Saturday's Grand Prix of Miami, the second round of the GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series.

Running at a track known for challenging tire wear, particularly for the heavier, rear-engined Porsches, the team came in to the race knowing that rear tire wear would be an on-going issue. Despite that, the team continually set competitive times throughout the race weekend, including the fourth fastest lap during the race, however early misfortune would put the team down early.
